VWAP + FVG DetectorA VWAP + FVG Detector is a tool used in trading that combines two concepts to identify potential trading opportunities. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) represents the average price of a stock, adjusted for the amount of trading volume at each price level throughout the day. Traders use it to assess whether the stock is overbought or oversold. On the other hand, FVG (Fair Value Gap) refers to gaps in price where the market has not fully adjusted or filled in, suggesting areas where price might return to a "fair value." The VWAP + FVG Detector helps traders spot moments when the price moves away from the VWAP and into an FVG, signaling possible price corrections or reversals. This combination allows traders to predict potential price movements, as the market often moves back toward the VWAP or fills in the gaps where price has been imbalanced.

[DarkTrader] 3 Candle EG ZoneThe 3 Candle EG Zone indicator identifies engulfing patterns and plots dynamic boxes around these zones. The engulfing patterns are key reversal signals where one candle's body completely engulfs the body of the previous candle, indicating a shift in market sentiment. This indicator identifies both bullish and bearish engulfing patterns and draws visual boxes around them, which extend to the right on the chart to show how the zones evolve over time.
EG Calculation by @moamenmostafa Script.
Indicator In Use :
Customization Parameters :
Max EG Box Showing: Defines the maximum number of engulfing (EG) boxes that can be displayed on the chart simultaneously. This helps to limit chart clutter by ensuring that only a specified number of zones are visible.
Pivot EG Box Offset: Sets how far to extend the engulfing box to the right from the current candle. This makes the box continue into future price action, highlighting the significance of the engulfing zone.
Zone Color: Customizes the color and transparency of the engulfing zone box, allowing users to set their preferred color to differentiate bullish and bearish zones.
Bullish Engulfing (Bullish EG):
The code checks if the last three candles have been bearish (open higher than close), and then the current candle is bullish (close higher than open) with a strong upward move. Additionally, the bullish candle must engulf the previous bearish candle, indicating a potential upward reversal. If this condition is true, a box is drawn around the low and high of the last candle.
Bearish Engulfing (Bearish EG):
Similarly, the code checks for three consecutive bullish candles (open lower than close), followed by a bearish candle (open higher than close) that engulfs the previous bullish candle. This signifies a possible downward reversal, and a box is drawn around the last candle's range.
The script continuously checks for bullish or bearish engulfing patterns and dynamically draws boxes around those zones. The boxes remain visible as long as the price stays within the engulfing zone's range. If the price exceeds the zone, the box is deleted, ensuring that only valid and current zones are shown on the chart.

Engulfing [TradingFinder] Bullish & Bearish CandleStick Pattern🔵 Introduction
The candlestick engulfing pattern is important pattern in technical analysis that can be observed in candlestick charts. This pattern occurs when a complete candle engulfs or "engulfs" the body of a previous candle, meaning that the body of the new candle completely covers the body of the previous candle.
The candlestick engulfing pattern has two types: the bullish engulfing pattern and the bearish engulfing pattern.
• Bullish Engulfing Pattern: This pattern occurs when a market candle opens with a larger and higher body than the previous market candle and completely covers the body of the previous candle. This pattern may indicate the presence of strong buying pressure and a potential change in price direction upwards.
• Bearish Engulfing Pattern: This pattern occurs when a market candle opens with a larger and lower body than the previous market candle and completely covers the body of the previous candle. This pattern may indicate the presence of strong selling pressure and a potential change in price direction downwards.
The candlestick engulfing pattern is usually used as a valid signal for a change in price direction in the market and can enhance a combination of crossover investments and technical analysis. However, it should always be evaluated alongside other indicators and market factors, and counter decisions should be made accordingly.
🔵 Recognition Method
Correct, the candlestick engulfing pattern is one of the important patterns in technical analysis that is typically used as a strong signal for a valid change in price direction in the market. This pattern occurs when a candle (usually in the market) opens with a larger and higher (for bullish engulfing pattern) or lower (for bearish engulfing pattern) body than a previous market candle and completely covers the body of the previous candle.
Example of Bullish Engulfing Pattern:
• First Candle: A bearish (downward) candle with a small red body.
• Second Candle: A bullish (upward) candle with a larger body that completely covers the body of the previous candle.
This pattern may indicate a change in price direction from downward to upward.
Example of Bearish Engulfing Pattern:
• First Candle: A bullish (upward) candle with a small green body.
• Second Candle: A bearish (downward) candle with a larger body that completely covers the body of the previous candle.
This pattern may indicate a change in price direction from upward to downward.
The most important point is that the candlestick engulfing pattern should be carefully considered and always evaluated alongside other market indicators and overall conditions. For example, the engulfing pattern near important support or resistance levels, during significant market command changes, or accompanied by other technical signals can have greater signaling power.

PERFECT ENGULFING Candlestick Patterns by AnmolWill add some more patterns and conditions in it in future, for now its for detecting PERFECT Engulfings only.
Use these Engulfing to take a trade when it get detected on support/resistance
Engulfing IndicatorThis is an "Engulfing" indicator. The "Engulfing" candle pattern is a reversal pattern that can appear at the end of an uptrend or downtrend.
The indicator includes the following inputs or settings:
1. `tolerance`: This defines the percentage difference in size that there must be between the body of the current candle and that of the previous candle to consider that one candle "engulfs" the other.
2. `tailSizePercentage`: This defines the maximum percentage size of the candle's tail in relation to the body of the candle for it to be considered valid.
3. `hideBuy` and `hideSell`: If set to true, they hide the buy and sell labels on the chart.
4. `checkTailSize` and `checkPrevTailSize`: If set to true, they check the size of the tail of the current and previous candle in relation to the body of the candle. If the tail is too large (as defined by `tailSizePercentage`), it is not considered valid.
The indicator works as follows:
First, it calculates the size of the body of the current and previous candle. Then, it checks if the current candle is green (close greater than open) or red (close less than open).
Next, it checks if the current candle "engulfs" the previous one. This means that, in the case of a green candle, the open must be less than or equal to the previous candle's close and the close must be greater than or equal to the previous candle's open. For a red candle, it's the other way around.
The indicator also checks if the size of the previous candle's body is at least a certain percentage (defined by `tolerance`) of the size of the current candle's body.
If `checkTailSize` or `checkPrevTailSize` is enabled, the indicator also checks the size of the tail of the current and/or previous candle. If the tail is too large in relation to the body of the candle (as defined by `tailSizePercentage`), the candle is not considered valid.
Finally, if all conditions are met, a buy or sell signal is generated and a label is drawn on the chart. An alert is also generated.

Engulfing Pinbar [serkany88]This is an experimental candlestick pattern that combines pinbars and engulfing patterns as my own implementation. These signals can be used as a possible reversal points based on timeframe used or set wick size. Of course these signals should never be used on their own but rather can be used as another confluence of possible entry signal.
Functional and Manual alerts provided with simple and clean code.
TLDR: Use as a possible reversal point for your entries in combination with your trend and volatility filters. Green means possible bullish move, Red means possible bearish move.

Liquidity Engulfing Candles [upslidedown]Liquidity engulfing candles (LEC) are a variant of a common candlestick pattern: engulfing candles but with a couple extra conditions applied. These conditions expect highs/lows to be taken out in order to show a continuation or reversal signal.
Filter 1: Stop Hunt Wick Filter
This filter requires the candle to wick into the prior candles high or low ( bullish = wick below prior candle lows). This is the stop hunt.
Filter 2: Close Filter
This filter requires the candle to close above or below above the prior candle ( bullish = close above prior candle high). This is the confirmation.
This idea was introduced to me by @attrk632. Thanks, mate!

Bullish & Bearish EngulfingA simple script to filter out bullish and bearish engulfing candles. Size of candles can be filtered.
Engulfing Candle Marker (Full Candle)A simple indicator that marks FULL CANDLE engulfing candles...
current high > previous high
current low < previous low
bullish: close > open (triangle below)
bearish: close < open (triangle above)
A lot of the engulfing indicators available are body only. I created a FULL CANDLE indicator because that's what I prefer using.
Can be useful for spotting both reversal and continuation price action. Always have a complete trading plan and backtest it for yourself, engulfing candles in themselves to not guarantee a profit.

Smart Patterns Lite - Engulf EditionHi Traders! Welcome to Smart Patterns Lite - Engulf Edition
This lite version of Smart Patterns script specifically focuses on different Engulfing Pattern approaches, and tracks their performance and success rate over time.
Key Features
This edition includes TradingView's Engulfing Pattern as well as two custom ones: Engulf (Trend) and Engulfing (Advanced)
When a Pattern reaches the Min. Target % within the Candles Range selected, it is then considered valid. Please remember that doesn't take into account possible draw-downs or stop-losses.
Patterns are constantly evaluated inside the script; when a pattern's overall score (Success Rate %) is below the required minimum, the signal won't be triggered. However, the script will keep monitoring it in the background, and trigger a signal again when its score comes back above the minimum Success Rate.
The Patterns' signals can be filtered by Success Rate, Minimum Patterns detected and candle size (calculated via ATR).
The Data Panel will show individual statistics for Enabled Patterns as well as final statistics for Triggered Patterns.
Tooltips in the settings panel will further explain available options.
Alerts: simple alerts can be added by selecting "any alert() function call" when adding an Alert. Customizable alerts can also be created through dropdown menu ( Bullish \ Bearish Patterns Detected).
Notes and Recommendations
Always be realistic when tweaking settings, making sure the output makes sense in a normal trading environment. Statistics are helpful but shouldn't be the only factor to base your decisions on - even if a pattern reaches 100% Success Rate, it doesn't mean it will keep being profitable.
Since the script crunches quite some data it may give output errors especially if settings are not properly tweaked - or if the filters are too liberal (e.g. Min Target % set to 0.1) - hence triggering lots of signals. Please adjust the settings or enable only the Patterns you are trading.
If the script gives the error "Too many drawings, cannot clean oldest" it means your settings give too many signals and that is usually not a good sign - it's recommended to double-check your settings as mentioned above.

This indicator is a part of my new script I am creating and I will be realising soon. Hope it helps.
I really don't understand why other people were making it so complicate LOL
DECPDECP is simple and easy to use!
It detects bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns.
After detecting the patterns I've said, it mentions that the pattern is going to continue its direction to up or down.
But remember candlestick patterns don't determine targets and it's possible that predicted directions fail.
So use it carefully and enjoy it!
